(Image credit: Atlas Data Storage ) Atlas Data Storage, a DNA-based storage tech startup, has announced its first commercial offering. Rather than releasing DNA storage hardware to the masses, the company has begun to offer Atlas Eon 100, which it claims to be the “world's first scalable DNA data storage offering.” Alongside the launch, there are some mighty big claims about how dense and how durable DNA storage can be, with quite a few magnetic tape comparisons thrown in.
(Image credit: Atlas Data Storage ) (Image credit: Atlas Data Storage ) “Atlas is proud to be the only company in the world delivering storage products based on DNA technology at scale,” said Bill Banyai, Founder of Atlas Data Storage. “This is the culmination of more than ten years of product development and innovation across multiple disciplines. We intend to offer new solutions for long-term archiving, data preservation for AI models, and the safeguarding of heritage and high-value content.”
It sounds pretty compelling, so let’s take a closer look at the claims and comparisons. On its website and in its PR, Atlas headlines its communications to call out the durability of DNA.
